Why line quality matters
Fine line tattoos leave no room for shaky lines or ink spreading under the skin. Our founder Mallika Angela Chaudhuri is known for crisp line work. We’ll also advise you on minimum sizes and placements so your tattoo stays sharp as it ages.
Good placements for a first small tattoo
Wrist, inner forearm, ankle, collarbone, behind the ear and upper back are popular first placements. If this is your first tattoo, read the best tattoo for a first-timer.

How much does a small tattoo cost in Chennai?

Do fine line tattoos fade quickly?
Well-done fine line tattoos last well when the lines are placed at the right depth and the design isn’t too small. Good aftercare and sun protection help them stay sharp.

Fleshier areas such as the outer arm and upper back usually hurt less than bony areas such as the ribs, ankles or collarbone.
